You mean you're in the catacombs with the last guy that can cure M....?If so, you don't have to kill, beat the heck out of there, come back later when you're higher levelIf so, take information to M....he heals..now go to the store..yikes there...report to M...Go to gate, and venture forth slowly..I went around the fence outside of village first..save, before battle, during if you're winning and after if you won..run like heck back to the gate, the guard will help you kill those smelly old orcs.have fun

Like Ingie said, you don't have to fight all those skellies, you can run up through the doorway and Mardaneus will be there next to an exit portal. I'm pretty sure once you talk to him all the skellies die automatically and you can go back down and pick up whatever items they dropped, you just don't get any experience points for killing them.

I have the deadly gift skill but can't use it. Do you have any idea why? I can use repair and others, but not that one. When I click on my skills it is there, but I can't select it. Is it because of my level?

I see... I left about 4 scorpion traps inside the catacombs because I couldn't carry them... tried to use them but couldn't (I didn't have the deadly gift skill at that time). Guess I'll have to go back and get them now.

Just an update. I'm in the dark forest and boy are there some tough things there. But I went up 1 whole level in the forest. I'm a level 31 , reputation 26 right now and I'm on my way to find the tree. I'm still am not sure how to use charms on my weapons. I'm assuming that a weapon with a charm level 5 is worth using charms on. Am I right?ThanksKim

Yes enchant weapon is one of my skills but only a lev 1. Should I make it higher? I'm trying to use my skill points wisely. I have about 15 skills, most or lev 1 or 2 except for my restoration which is 3. I have 12 skill points to use and I'm trying to save them till the end so I'll know which levels to pick.

Okay Kim. If you have a weapon you love and either a gold or silver colored charm go ahead and use it. Just make sure that it's for something that you need to boost. I din't use the turquoise or orange colored charms unless it was for a weapon or armor that I knew I would get rid of.Just know that once you use a charm, you can't remove it from that weapon or piece of armor.You have just started moving around the Dark Forest? You still have time to use your skill points as you desire.Have fun

The enchant weapons works like this...with each point you place towards that skill that's how many charms you may use.Most weapons have the lower side of the 1-5 so One is fine, but they never come out once in.Since you're just starting unless you have found a superb weapon, if you have anything on you that accepts charms, try one of the pretty colors and see if you can see a differnce in your stats using it with a charm. I only kept the gold ones, the others I sold..but that was later in the game..this soon, I would not waste a gold charm on..but that's me.

Oh, you all are having so much fun and doing so well, you're pros already..
